Forestry Talks
Sawdust to Sustainability with Gordon Murray
You might associate wood pellets with backyard barbecues, but their real potential lies in shaping a sustainable energy future. In this episode, Aspen speaks with Gord Murray, Executive Director of the Wood Pellet Association of Canada, about how Canada’s wood pellet industry is helping reduce global greenhouse gas emissions, supporting sustainable forest management, and leading the bioeconomy.
Gord shares the incredible journey of how the industry evolved, misconceptions about pellet production, and what lies ahead—from powering cities to producing biochar and enabling carbon capture technologies.
